Tom Musselwhite

Senior Landscape Designer
Project Management

Tom's unique background as a landscape professional started early. Growing up with a father who was a sculptor, artist, and university design instructor fueled his interest in design, and he went on to study and work in the natural environs of Western Carolina University in the Southern Appalachian Mountains. This led to a lifelong passion for landscaping that took him first to Seattle, and then on to Japan for two years. The design studio at the University of Osaka Prefecture and an apprenticeship with a Japanese gardener taught him skills he continues to use today. Upon returning to Seattle, horticultural studies at Edmonds Community College furthered his experiences. Tom also credits outdoor pursuits as contributing to his natural designs. In 1991, Tom founded Pacific Garden Design in Spokane, committed to bringing together a team of professionals to serve the community with high quality landscapes that marry function and creativity.

He wears many hats here, but his main responsibilities are estimating and project management. He's equally likely to be running a spreadsheet in the office or a skid steer in the field.
